Posters that must be visible to applicants
['Labor Law Posters']
- Some federal labor law posters must be visible to applicants as well as employees.
- Employers may link to federal employment law posters on the company website for applicants who are not interviewed in person.
Some labor law postings required under federal law must be visible to applicants as well as employees. They include these three federal posters:
- Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) For employers with 50 or more employees,
- Know Your Rights: Workplace Discrimination is Illegal For employers with 15 or more employees, and
- Employee Polygraph Protection Act (EPPA) Poster — For employers with one or more employees.
If applicants who are interviewed on-site are not interviewed in an area where workplace posters are visible, be sure to display these three federal posters in the area where interviews are conducted.
For applicants who are not interviewed in person, employers may place a prominent notice on the job posting website, stating that “Applicants have rights under federal employment laws,” and linking employees to the three posters detailed above.
